I bought the yarn at Big Lots. I haven't been able to find a mint green baby yarn color that I like. But when my husband and I went to Big Lots one day, I saw some yarn there and I got a skein of the green. Then I went back and got two more. :D I was digging through my patterns to try and find a baby sweater like the ones I used to make. I don't have the pattern anymore. I'm pretty sure it was by Leisure Arts. There were two patterns, Strawberry Lace and a boy pattern (I can't remember the name..) Anyway, I found one- this one, that I made. It's no longer available, and I don't think I will make it again, either. :/ The two front edges do not even meet. The pattern had two ties to "connect it". But I don't like to use ties for baby things. (Choking hazard.) Anyway. I think I will still send this to Tia for her baby. I am crocheting a little hat and will have to find a bootie pattern that might go with it. Funny thing, this sweater uses the same pattern stitch as Tia's baby blanket. I didn't realize it til I was almost done with the sweater. I didn't really look through the pattern before I started it. So I thought that was a weird coincidence. Anyway, I tried the wayback machine, but maybe someone else might have better luck with it; if you want the sweater pattern, the url is: http://members.aol.com/fourleafc11064/page11.html

About Me

Well I am pretty boring.. :P I am a SAHM mom of three boys. I learned how to crochet when I was 19 (one of my Aunts taught me). Four years later my SIL gave me a couple set of knitting needles. I taught myself how to knit with a "Learn to Knit" book. This blog is mostly about yarn related things; but sometimes I will talk about other stuff, too. Thanks for stopping by.
